About this house rental
This solar powered single family home is located on the coast in the foothills of hawaii island’s oldest volcano, Kohala mountain, with views of the coastline and ocean. This beautifully appointed home is conveniently located in the historic neighborhood of Kawaihae Village. Set along the Kawaihae road, Hale Lani is a five-minute drive from some of the highest-rated beaches in the world: Mauna Kea, Hapuna beach state park and Waialea bay. Equally close are restaurants known for prize-winning fine dining in an outdoor setting. A scenic drive from Kawaihae harbor up the coast takes you to the charming town of Hawi, with prime whale viewing along the way during the winter months. The interesting and beautiful town of Waimea is just 15 minutes drive up the mountain where guests enjoy the many shopping and sightseeing options.

This was the most spotless and well-stocked vacation rental we have ever visited. The hosts left us a warm welcome and responded to any questions we had within minutes. I’m usually not a good sleeper on trips, but crashed out in one of the very comfortable beds and woke up to some tropical bird outside. We loved Kona coffee on the lanai, looking at the ocean, grilling and getting to the beach in five minutes. Kawaihae Harbor is also just a mile down the road and the food at the seafood grill was fantastic. This location is perfect. Bonus - the house has a massage chair and beautiful walk-in shower. Perfect experience, really great value, and we will definitely be back!

Beautiful Hale Lani sits close enough to the ocean that you can see waves break at Mau Mai beach. The owners stock everything from fresh olive oil to beach gear. We love the comfy beds and the yard at sunset. Hale Lani has central air, a rarity in Hawaii, and is always cool. This house should cost a thousand dollars a night, but doesn’t, so we come year after year. Aloha until next summer!

We loved staying here. The home was comfortable and quiet - yes there is highway noise but we were not bothered by it - we all slept better than we have in months! The beds were super comfortable and having the air conditioning to keep us cool at night was wonderful. The central air really is a game changer for night time and not that common in Hawaii, in my experience. The home was stocked with every pot, pan and utensil we could have needed, including a rice cooker that we used almost every day. Tupperware also! We fired up the grill one night and that was fabulous. The kitchen is kind of separate from where the TV is which was great for grownups cooking and chatting while the kids watched tv. I was trying to make a mental list of all the exceptional things about this place when I was there, because I was so appreciative of things like loads of bath towels (good, decent sized soft towels!) and great water pressure. The water got hot fast and worked well when both showers were in use. Unlike my own house! Haha. The patio was so wonderful - we sat out there for many meals. The plumeria tree gave us flowers every day and the kids loved watching the anole and the birds. Incredible view. We used the beach toys, cooler and beach towels daily. It was so great to have those things available to us! Overall the home has such a comfortable vibe, it's well decorated and there were many sweet touches all around the home, including in the yard. The hosts were awesome communicators.
